We adopt the means of nonviolence because our end is a community at peace with itself. We will try to persuade with our words, but if our words fail, we will try to persuade with our acts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have heard me say before and I will say again, Nnamdi Kanu is only a businessman looking for where to collect money. He is not driven by ideology or love for the Igbos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter attacking his fellow Igbo brother, Senator Ike Ekweremadu who played a significant role in ensuring his release from Kuje Prison in Germany, Kanu the businessman has called on some of his miscreants\/supporters to attack President Buhari as he visits Japan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose who were doubting me when I said Kanu is being sponsored by some elements in the North can now see the clear handwriting on the wall. How can any reasonable person openly call for an attack on the president of a nation on foreign soil? Even if you don\u2019t like Buhari or what he represents, at least we must respect the fact that he is the president of our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cDo you think Kanu does not know the danger of attacking Buhari in Japan. He knows but those sponsoring him are doing everything humanly possible to ensure no Igbo man ever rule Nigeria and also put peace-loving Igbos in the North in danger by setting them up for reprisal attacks by Buhari\u2019s fanatical supporters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also alleged that another plot by the IPOB leader is to create an atmosphere of war, which his sponsors are using as an opportunity to \u201cprovoke the political leaders in the South-East\u201d to launch attacks against him (Kanu).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe other plot is also to use Kanu to divide Igbos by creating an atmosphere of war. The plan of the sponsors of Kanu is to provoke the political leaders in the South East, i.e -governors and other elected officials to the point that they will have no other option but to orchestrate attacks against Kanu and his supporters in retaliation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKanu only worships money and will not stop the verbal attacks on Igbo leaders in as much as his paymasters continue to send him alerts\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE Convener of Concerned Nigerians, CN, and human rights activist, Prince Deji Adeyanju, yesterday, blasts the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, over call to attack President Muhammadu Buhari in Japan.
